Steve Bannon being pushed out of the White House is not symbolic of the required ideological shifts or change necessary for President Trump to be fit for office.
Steve Bannon being elevated to the President’s Chief Strategist was nothing but a symptom of the larger problem. The larger problem is that our President is a white supremacist, neo-Nazi sympathizer with a conspiracy-addled brain who attracts and elevates people like Mike Flynn and Steve Bannon.
Bannon being kicked out is problematic for Trump in the larger scheme of things because he can’t afford to lose the support of one of his top propaganda outlets, but it is even more problematic because it perfectly captures Trump’s cowardice and the way he “fixes” problems he creates.
The problem of Trump’s racism and inability to lead is not fixed by Bannon being kicked out. Bannon is but a symptom of the larger Trump problem.
All of this drama, and it’s high Trumpian drama made-for-TV, is meant to hide the fact that President Trump sided with neo-Nazis and white supremacists after one of them killed a woman in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Trump has not denounced the thinking behind white supremacy. He is, like a child, unable to suggest “his” side was wrong, even after they killed a woman, without telling mommy that his sibling did it, too. Except his sibling did not do it, too.
So Trump has done what any low-level bully does; he fired someone underneath him who represents the thing Donald Trump just got in trouble for doing. It’s like kicking the dog.
A real leader takes responsibility for their own words. They don’t fire underlings for getting too much press and as a cover for their own mistakes.
We still have a Nazi and white supremacist defending President in the United States White House.
No one should be surprised, and those Trump voters who are saying they are so sorry they voted for him need to explain how they didn’t know that they were voting for exactly what they are getting, since Trump was all of these things before and during the campaign.
They asked us to give him a chance, said “What damage can he do.” These were never inspiring come backs, but now they should haunt the people who uttered such tripe.
How many days will it be before some desperate pundit declares that Trump has become President finally, and what low bar will he have to scuttle past to get such undo, inaccurate praise.
Maybe Trump will be expected to say he is not exactly standing with the thinking that killed millions of people. What courage.
